 Hey @desrosj 💫

 1. Your summary was helpful.
 1. Your PR makes sense and looks good at a cursory. I specifically like
 that you thought to carry over the "old multisite global tables" the way
 that you did (other `wpdb` issues not-withstanding...)
 1. I believe this is why `wp-includes/pluggable-deprecated.php` exists!
 Everything in there internally calls `_deprecated_function()` and still
 does what it did before it was deprecated. I'd plunk them all in there.
 1. I am in agreement that this can and should happen. I agree that
 `wontfix`ing related bug reports seems appropriate in this instance. Also
 agree about developer note.

 Question (for anyone): should we add more committers to the Global Terms
 plugin to preemptively/separately maybe/possibly update it to not be
 broken at the same time, or just close it, or something else?
